We’ve loved getting to know this Brooklyn singer/songwriter thanks to her new album After the Party, on Pasadena/Royal Potato Family Records. “Leslie’s melodies are timeless. They reach me way back in my youth somewhere. I hear traces of Burt Bacharach and Carole King, and hooks and passages that remind me of pop songs I grew up hearing on the radio” (Jackson Browne.) She plays Wednesday the 18th at The Grey Eagle in Asheville, and Thursday the 19th at Iredell Arts Council in Statesville.
Live in Studio B, Thursday at 1pm: Leslie Mendelson
